104 ®k* $ * Song of New England Spring Birds. When Robin, Swallow, Thrush, and Wren, From “ way down south " had oome.again, I roamed through field nod wood to sde If birds, like men, could “Rebels” be} I wondered if their tiny throats Would , circulate secession “ notes;” I think, may be, my thoughts they knew, So what they sang, I'll sing to you.' First rising from a sedgy hrookj. The stump, bold Rob-o' Lincoln took; “ Well now, I guess I’m glad," said he, “ For my free speech a stump to see; They oouldn’t hold me in the m'esh , Of that strange net they call ‘ Se,eesh;';.... To keep me down they need’nt think on— Hurrah! for Boband-Abram-Lincoln 1" . The Robin Red-breast sang his song^ “Ah me 1 I've seen such fearful wrong ,1 I thought at first the storm would clear up, But soon I had no heart to ‘ chirrup 1 ’ The ‘ Sunny South ’ is fine I know, When Northern hills are white with snow; But oh, 'tis full of grief and pain 1 Cheer up 1 chirrup I’m home again.” The Wren piped forth her tiny cry; ’ “A little thing, I know am I; — ■ But small, weuk things, like you and me,' My sister Sparrow, love the'free 1 ” The Sparrow heard the lowly call, '• And said, “who heeds the sparrows’ fall, And keeps them always in His sigljt, Shall hear me sing 1 God speed the right 1 ’ " Then Jay, the bluebird; joined the-throng, And bade the white .Dove fly along; ■ And Oriole, with throat of red,—: . . And then exultingly, he,,said,-fr “ Come, loyal birds, and-as we stand, Behold the oolors of our Land 1 ’ Let every bird that’s bratfe and tnie, ! ; Sing, cheer the Red and White and BJue I ” The sky o’er head was clear and bright, The North wind sang o’er plain and height ; The rill went singing on its ty, • 1 And leaves and flowers were ,brigh,t and jgay; The rock and wood apd meadow rang, •< As loud and clear and sweet they sang, ■ And every bird, it seemed to me, Sang, “ l’raise the Lord!

It was at noon on the firift day of this new year, we had to part with opr .dpiir little Maggie, Only three more days: and ishe would have been just six and a half years old. We shall always call her little Maggie, because she has now gone to that bright land where little childrefii ne.vhr ’grow old. , What, a happy new year’s day was >that for our little Maggie? but what a sad, sad diy for her parents—her little brother, who then lost his only playmate, and for all pf us who loved her so much 1 Maggie was $ bright Aunbeam in that missionary s home; It was ; ncit so much her happy, smiling face, and mesrry voice a~ hcc u~e °he w ~ alway - io gentle, so good, anil o kind to her younger • brother, and to all the little Chinese chil dren around her. We all loved her because she loved Jesus and wanted to he like him. Maggie used to often Sing “ I want to be an angel, and with the angels stand. In the early morning we would hear her sweet voice singing “ There is a happy land: far. far away,” or ” I m going home to die no more.” Maggie had never been to the Sabbath school to learn to sing these beautifil songs. 'No ; where she lived such a thing as a Sab bath school nau never Deen Known; ner home was far on the other side of the world from you—away off in China. It was Mag gie’s mamma Who Mad’ taught her to sihg so many pretty songs and Hymns for chil dren; the same ones, too, that you know sing.. Almost : every aftepiqon, ;you might hav< seen Maggie sitting in her low rocking chair by her mother s side reading about Jesus Christ from her New Test ment ■: —the one her papa gave her for her own, and wrote her name in it for her.- After the reading lesson was finished her work-box was brought out and while learning to sew, she wanted to be singing those sweet' songs, or else listening while her mamma read aloud “ That sweet story of old. or perhaps “stories of Bible men Though Maggie never had the privilege of going to Sabbath school, yet She had a share m one treat which many Sabbath school children enjoy. ■ She, too, had a copy of the Child s Paper. What a tieasure it was' Such beautiful pictures—such nice stones—every word of which she could understand herself. “ They are so nice —nice enough to read over and over again. , ■■ Maggie had been very ill for two weeks. Her throat "Was so sore and painful she pouldiiot talk much, ahd by and. by she could only spe kin whrper If spoken to she would always try to smile a littfe to let US see she he rd u and loved us still When her mamma told her she was very sick, she said “ Yes—l knows it.; lam not afraid to die- I’ll go and be one of Jesus’ little lambs. I shall see my little brother and sister in heaven.” Before Maggie was sick at all, when talking of her relations in America, and telling the names of those who had often sent her little presents, and of those she most loved, she would turn and say—“ but Jesus is sweetest of all, isn’t,' he, mamma ?” , Maggie’s nurse was an old Chinese wo man, who had taken ca,re of her ever since she was a little baby. This poor woman had ,■ for more than six years, (heard about Jesus Christ, who loved her, and died to save her soul, but she did not seen! to care at all for that, or love him any. in return; no—she 1 loved her wooden idols better. Maggie, in saying her prayers, always remembered to pray for her ama,. as the nurse, wassailed in Chinese. Not long before Maggie 1 * death, as she was naming those whom she expected to be with her in heaven, she said—“ arid my ama will be there too.” When little Maggie died the ama wept bitterly. She did not cry with a great noise, though,'las many of : these poor heathen do, "so as to have people think they are very sorry. She was often seen to weep, and though she still did all her work as iaithfully as ever, yet ’we ; cduld see she was telling the truth when dhe said “ I have no heart in my work now.” ' Years before,, when Maggie’s little bro ther died, the ama, like all the Chinese, had been afraid to stay iri' the room where his ] body lay, but now she Was found alpne weep- Ving over her dear Maggie’s,cold fo|m, When the ama was told how Maggie had long been praying for her—praying she might love her dear Jesus, her heart was melted with grief. Not long after she said, “I have .made up my mind as to what I shall do.” From that time ,lfhe ama has seemed a changed person. ‘ She loves now' to talk about Jesus—loves to Commonwealth. ■, attend family worship, and loves to go to preaching.. Though her eyes are old, - and she is near-sighted, yet she is learning to read. You should see her putting on her glasses, and then carrying her little cate chism up close to the window that she might be able to see to pick out the Chinese char- which are so difficult to learn. How fast she is learning now ! A few mohths ago she had to be asked to bring her book and read ; now she comes book in hand, and with such a pleasant 100k,.' says; “ I would like to read a.little now, if you are not too busy.” Then, two or three lines was all she could learn at once; now a whole half-page is not too long a lesson. To think of an old; woman nearly sixty, who had never sang in all her life before, beginning now to learn to sing-“ Happy Land,’’ and other-,tunes: her little pet used to -sing so sweetly. You would never imagine the tune she sings, and those queer-sounding words, were meant for “ Happy Land”—‘the “ Happy Land” you all know so well. 1$ is music to her ear, 'though, and so she sings away. We all love this good old ama more than ever before, not only for our little Maggie’s sake, but he •cause she is trying to serve our dear and blessed Saviour. My, dear little friends is there not some one whom you love, but who does not yet love Jesus ? Will you not be gin to-night to pray for that one? If you really wish with all your heart to meet' that person in heaven, God will hear your prayer as he 1 has heard Maggie’s for her ama;- Foreign Missionary ;• .' ’ ‘ THE TRUE HERO. ” i. A poor miner in Cornwall was down deep in the earth with another miner sinking a 1 shaft. They were blasting rocks, and their custom was, after the rock wits charged, for one first to ascend in the bucket, and the other to, wait until the bucket came down again, then ignite the fuse, get into the buck-' et, give the signal to the man above, and be drawn to the top before the explosion. In - the present case the train unexpectedly took fire. The fuse was hissing, both men rushed to the bucket, got in, and gave the signal to hoist; but the man 'above could not draw them both. They at once saw their danger; both could-not escape, and delay-was death. One.of the.miners was .pious. Looking for a moment at his companion, and stepping from the bucket, he said, “Escape for thy life ; in a few moments I shall be in heaven.” The bucket was drawn up, and the man was safe. Eager to know the fate .of his inous companion, he bent over the' mouth of the shaft. * Just then the explosion* rumbled below; and a splinter striick him on the brow, leaving a mark he will carry to the grave. /They soon commenced laboring among.the .fallen rocks tPi.extricate the corpse. At last they heard a voice. Their friend was yet alive. They reached him, and fonnd him without injury or scratch. All. he could tell of the fearful scqne was, that the moment his friend was gone, he sat down and, took up a stone, and’held it before his face. When asked what induced him to let his companion’escape, he replied, “I be lieved my soul was safe; I was not sure of his.” Now look at him who, to build a city call ed by his own name, sacrificed a hundred thousand men, and at this poor miner, who to save the soul of his unconverted comrade; sat down there to be blasted to pieces, and say ..which is’the true hero. i - BURKE’S IDEA OF A PERFECT WIFE. /.iSgE is handsome ; but it is not a beauty arising from the features, from complexion; or from .shape. She has all three in a high degree; but it is 'not by. these that she touches the heart; itns all that sweetness of temper, benevolence,: innocence; it is* all ’that’ sensibility which a face can express, that forms her beauty. She has a face that arouses your attention at first sight; it grows upon you every moment, and you wonder it did not more than raise- attention at.... first. Her eyes have a mild light, but they awe when she pleases; they command, like a good man out of office, not by authority, but by virtue. Her stature is net tall; she is not made to be an admiration of every one. She has the firmness that does not exclude deli cacy ; all the softness that does not imply weakness. Her voice is soft, low music, not formed to.rule in public assemblies, but to charm those who distinguish a company from a crowd ; it has its advantage—you must come close to hear it. To describe her body; describe her mind ; one is the transcript of the other. Her understanding is not shown in the variety of matters it exerts itself upon, but the goodness of the choice she makes. Her politeness flows rather from a natural disposition to oblige than any rules on that subject, and therefore never fails to strike those who understand good breeding and those’who do not. •< r 1 * ; WHAT 18 WORSE THAN PEACE. The carnage of war'is terrible. Yet a hundred times worse than the blood of bat tles is When a nation’s' spirit, swelling not with the pride of honor and manliness, and with the grandeurs pf righf as outlasting the suffering years of earth, can rejoice in a peape. stamped all over with the craven seal, of a mean, money-mahirig selfishness. And the only alternative of a people so perishing, is that :of, saving itself: at the cost of blood- When those high in powc.r are daring to talk ’treason- with ari unblushipg brow in the very streets f pf a nation’s' capital, —studying the craft of bankrupting a treasury and then de manding the applause of half an empire for the villainy, and when "Newspapers, whose moving, thoughts are at the ends of the land on the wings of evening, can dare, by a la bored process, day after day, to figure out their 1 own national government to be worth .just a couple of shillings to each man,woman, and child; then is a state sinking down surely in the decay of all that is great and worthy, unless it be taught tKeJvalue of; truth and pariotism in some hard way of suffering. Learning to think of the worth of country as measured'in the balances with dollars and cents, with cotton and corn, a people is ta king one long stridedown to where men die out iri -a mercenary barbarism. The goihg down is'basy; but to turn Back again, that’s the rub. And so a religion whose Calvary has been teaching the world how infinite suf ferings should be -endured to save divine honor, points her finger often, at such a time, to only one opening Way bf salvation, r and ; fhat the gory path of war. —-Boston Meview.

Wh are apt to believe in Providence so long as we have our own way, but if things go awry, then we think, it there is a God, he is in heaven, and not on earth. The cricket in the Spring builds his little house in the meadow, and chirps for joy. because 'ail is gbing so well with him. But when he hears the sound of the plow a lew furrows 'off, and the thunder of the oxen s tread, then the skies begin to look dark ai d hr heart fails him.‘‘The plow cobaes crunching along, and turns his dwelling bottom side up, and as he is rolling over and over without a. home,'his heart says, “Oh, the'foundations of the world’are destroyed, and everything is going to ruin I ” But the husbandman who walks behind ' his plow, singing knd whistling as he goes, does he think the foun dations of the world are breaking up ? Why ho does not so much as know there was any house or cricket there. He' thinks of the harvest that- is to follow. tHe , track of the plow. l We are all like the crickets. If any thing happens to overthrow our plans, we think ‘all is gone to ruin.— Beecher: THE MARCH OF THE HARK BRIGADE. It is not often “..that the huh of the uni verse” shakes on its axle. But last Thurs day it fell from its steadfastness. It was the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, that stormed and took the city. We gather’ from various sources the inei - dents of the • march, and' submit to our rea ders the raw materials for the future poets historians. The cars from the neighboring cities came in crowded, as at the Prince of Wales reception. Extremes meet. The heir of the proudest throne-and most despised of mankind created -furore. The streets were thronged. Nature smiled propitious. So did the citizens..,. About 1 0 o’clock the cars landed the regi ment, and the liie of march was taken up through the principal .streets. .Gilmore’s band led the column. A colored band that did not play, and a colored drdm corps that did, and well, followed. Then came the strange spectacle—a thousand black forms and faces. Some expressions looked hard, and almost brutal, as if they had just emerged from their long prison-house, and had only two ideas—liberty and vengeance. Others, and most, were refined Itnd thoughtful, and full of high inspiration; ■-n ■ - i. , : .. They sweep along from curbstone to curb stone, with even, steady knap sacks and coats piled upon their shoulders, their guns erect against them* Nemesis .is marching to South Carolina.

Nei ther the prostrating heat of summer nor the benumbing cold of winter reaches, thp |api mal, vital warmth. ■ This fact, which is more l or less well -known, is generally : accounted for upon the vague but erroneous impression that a living body Has sbibe-mysterious power. •'SPfie power of almhgbody'togenerate'heaihr to preserve'it is -no greater nor-more mysteri ous than that of a stove.

PROPORTIONS: OF THE HUMAN FIGURE, The proportions : of the human figure are strictly mathematical:' The whole figure is six times the length* of the foot. Whether the form be blender |! or .plump, this rule holds good.'Any deviation fromit is a departure from the highest beauty of proportion. The Greeks make all their statues according to 'this rule. The face from the highest point of the fore head, where -the [hair begins, to the-end of the chin, is one-tenth of the whole,stature. The hand, from.the wrist: to . the end of' 'the middle finger, is the same. The chest is -a fourth, ;and from the nipple to the top of the head is the same. Erom the top ,of the chest to the highest point; of .the top of the [fore head is a seventh*, .If the length of the face, from the root? of the hair to the chin, be divided into three equal parts, the first diyi .sion .determines the point where the eyebrows meet,* and the second 'the place of the nos trils. The navel is the central point of the human body; and if ia man should lie on his back’, with his arms:-extended, the periphery of the circle iwbicbmight be described around him, with the navel for its, centre, would touch the extremities of his hantjs an 4 feet. The height from the feet to. the top ,qf the head is the- Same as the distance "from one extremity to the other when the arms are extended. These are general measures of the species. , , ■ i t GREAT IRISH EXbDUjS. ' 1 • (’ / » , An extraordinary emigration is setting in this season,.from Ireland to the,.United States. The people-actuated by a common l impulse, fly from, a ,-land where only starva tion' and death awaits them and their chil dren. They know that, there is food and labor to be obtained in plenty in, the land for which their sons and fathers and brothers are fighting. Tjiey therefore leave all and seek us by an irresistible attraction, j. Thjs great exodus is no longeV confined, ,8® here tofore, to the South and, Southwest- of Ire land, but the thrifty iWjth and the enterpri sing Eastern counties pour forth their skill ed artizans and industrious farmers.
